In page Samaritans:

"

The religion of this remnant community is likely distorted by the account recorded in the Books of Kings,[13] which claims that the local Israelite religion was perverted with the injection of foreign customs by Assyrian colonists.[10] In reality, the surviving Samaritans continued to practice Yahwism. This explains why they did not resist Judean kings, such as Hezekiah and Josiah, imposing their religious reforms in Samaria.[citation needed] Magnar Kartveit argues that the people who later became known as Samaritans likely had diverse origins and lived in Samaria and other areas, and it was the temple project on Mount Gerizim that provided the unifying characteristic that allows them to be identified as Samaritans.[14]
